Focusing Our Resources for Community Enlightenment (FORCE) seeks local artists to collaborate on a mural to commemorate the life and work of Michael Jackson. The mural, entitled “Michael Jackson ON the Wall,” will comprise eleven images of Michael Jackson spray painted on (54″ X 75″) bed sheets. The eleven full sized bed sheets will be hung horizontally end-to-end to create a temporary mural spanning 71 feet “on the south wall” of the Thornden Park Amphitheater stage. Thus, the works title, “Michael Jackson ON the Wall.”
The mural will be displayed during the “A Chance to Be Seen” Variety show, which will take place at the Thornden Park Amphitheater on Saturday, August 29th-the 51st anniversary of Michael Jackson’s birth- from 1 to 4 p.m. The Show, entitled “We Are the World! -Heal the World: A Tribute to Michael Jackson” will be an eclectic mix of song, dance and the spoken word. Artists interested in collaborating on the mural are asked to contact Keith at 315-382-5987 (c) or by email, kherring43@aol.com.
